DIY Easter Baskets

Easter is quickly approaching – I totally didn’t even realize it was in March this year until last week.

As with other holidays, I love celebrating Easter. One of my goals this year was to do more fun crafts and activities with Jack, and the holidays are the perfect time for that.

We had a couple of bottles of Tampico, and I thought that it would be fun to make some DIY Easter Baskets for Jack and Oliver with them. The more I thought about it, the more cute ideas I came up with them. I was really hoping they would turn out!

I’d say about 50% of my ideas turn out pretty well. This is one of the 50% that did. In fact, I think they are one of my favorite creations to date. We made them at my mom’s house, and my mom said, “Wow, I didn’t realize you were so craft!” Thanks mom. haha!

These are a fun project to get your kids involved in. Obviously you need to be careful so they don’t burn themselves with the hot glue (I definitely have a few burns on my fingers), but it’s fun and easy. I think they turned out so cute!

So here is a tutorial. The first part of the tutorial is the same for both the bunny basket and the chick basket, and then after step you can choose which one to make!
